I dont think my answer will be original ) The desire to meet interesting people, and the opportunity to see the world through eyes of local residents, rather than ordinary tourists.

I do not have favorite styles of music - I like and any music that does not conflict with my mood at the moment. Sometimes it can be Rock and roll, rockabilly, I like Talking Heads, Elvis Presley, Frank Zappa, Beatles, Eddie Wedder, Doors, Depeche Mode, Bee Gees, Stray Cats, Cesaria Evora, Amy Winehouse, Hazmat Modine, Armstrong, Chris Isaak, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Stranglers and other. But it doesnt mean that I dont perceive contemporary music, just not always memorize the names of the performers ) Тhe main condition - the music should touch the strings of the soul! This statement is also suitable for Movies too) I definitely dont like the horrors and trash. I like how they write - Jack Kerouac, Ken Kesey, Stephen King , Viktor Pelevin, Michail Bulgakov, Ludmila Ulitskaya, and many others.
